Antizyme is a non-competitive inhibitor of ODC that is synthesized in response to an increase in polyamine concentration. Tight binding of the antizyme to the ODC monomer forming a heterodimer prevents enzymatic activity. The region of antizyme interacting with ODC is contained in a section involving residues 106–212 in the COOH-terminal half of the antizyme molecule. The induction of antizyme thus leads to a loss of active ODC protein (Pegg, 2006 and references cited in that review).
